The bus drivers are the STM’s ambassadors to the public on the surface network. While the great majority of clients are courteous, some people can at times demonstrate a lack of respect.

To show its support for its bus drivers, and inspired by a campaign undertaken on public transit in Belgium, the STM will encourage an attitude of respectfulness aboard its buses and in the corridors of the métro this fall. The slogan, Le respect rapproche, will be visible in our installations and via various customer communication tools.

These awareness efforts are part of the Sécuribus program, targeted at improving the safety of bus drivers.
